Cheatin’ Lyrics

[Skit: Phonte as Percy Miracles]
Baby, we've been together for so long
And I just don't know, why you continue to do me
The way you wanna do me?
I checked your cell phone, and I saw a number
I didn't notice he called on that
So somethin' tells me, either yo' mama done change her number
Or you cheatin'

[Verse 1: Percy]
How could you do this to me after all these years?
Girl I don't know what in the fuck you think this is
Always tryna play around and tell lies while you are not at home
Sorry girl, you busted now, I saw the number on yo' cell phone, you cheatin'

[Chorus: Percy]
You was cheatin' (yes you was)
Caught you creepin' (yes I did)
To the window, to the wall, skeet-skeetin' (you triflin' ho)
Heavy breathing, (yes you was)
Now I'm leavin'...
(I got to walk out right now, cause I just can't take it girl, you was cheatin')
You was cheatin' (yes you was)
Caught you creepin' (yes I did)
To the window, to the wall, skeet-skeetin' (you dirty bitch)
Heavy breathing (yes you was)
Now I'm leavin' (I got to get outta here, cause I just can't take it no more)
[Verse 2: Percy & Mr. Biggs impersonator]
(La-laaah, Percy don't you know
We been through this type of thing before-hore)
Oh, lord
But this time it's different, I know I ain't trippin
I looked in the cell phone, saw another man's digits
(Now, you must be trippin', cause you know it's not the same
She caught you from her mama house and maybe her number changed)
No, she got the two-thousand minute plan, callin' her minuteman
I'm packin' the kids up, we gone in the minivan (no don't do it Percy)

[Chorus: (Percy) & Mr. Biggs]
You was cheatin' (yes you was)
Caught you creepin' (yes I did)
To the window, to the wall, to the wall, oh you killing me skeet-skeetin' (you cold busted)
Heavy breathing No Percy (out the door), now I'm leavin'... No, no no..
(No more checks and no more child support) Oh my gawd-hod, no
You was cheatin' (Fuck that..), caught you creepin'
(I can't believe she would do this to me)
To the window, to the wall, skeet-skeetin' Give it another chance, Percy
Heavy breathing (She don't deserve it), now I'm leavin'... no, no (no, no, no she don't)
Let me count the ways that I loved you girl

[Bridge: Background Singers, Mr. Biggs & Phonte as Percy]
I say, one, two, three, four, five
Really wanted you to be my wife
And I say six, seven, eight, nine, ten
Really wanted you to be my friend
And I say eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen
Can't, think of nothing that rhyme wit', fifteen
Oh lord, the background singers just messed up
(Well, Percy I don't give a fuck)
Well, tell me where we gonna go
(We're going to "The Minstrel Show")
[Chorus: Percy & Mr. Biggs]
You was cheatin' (yes she was)
Caught you creepin'
To the window, to the wall, skeet-skeetin'
(We're live at the show and I just don't know where to go, baby)
Heavy breathing, now I'm leaving
(Ooohh, I'm so hurt, I'm so tired, I don't know what to do
I'm so turned around and I just turn around of seeing faces
And then I just wanna fall out and die)
You was cheatin' (I know how you feel Percy)
Caught you creepin' (You don't understand)
To the window, to the wall, skeet-skeetin' (Believe me, I know how you feel)
Heavy breathing (How do you know?), now I'm leavin'
(You know in your heart, that you, don't, want, nobody but her)

[Skit: Mr. Biggs & Percy]
Whoo! Thank you! (Thank you, thank you everyone)
Thank you Minstrel Show! We love you, Minstrel Show
(Thank ya) Thank ya, I'm Percy Miracles, Mr. Biggs (Thank ya!)
You sound so wonderful, baby
Thank you, thank you!

[Interlude]
"Hi, this is Devon Callender out of Brooklyn, New York
And you're watching the biggest colored show on earth
'The Minstrel Show'"

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
